"Your Highness, please rest assured that our navy is currently conducting early adaptability training. Although it will take some time to complete and purchase large warships, the performance of the small and medium-sized warships left over from the Peninsula Alliance is quite good. In addition to the elimination of Except for some ships that are too old and too old, although there are fewer ships currently retained, under the current circumstances, they are enough to undertake the basic training tasks of the existing navy in Western Xinjiang. The humble post also started from Most of the sailors and sailors were transferred from the Changfeng Meeting. In addition, after screening and screening from the Peninsula Navy, we also retained some soldiers and grassroots officers. Now the West Xinjiang Navy has basically taken shape and is basically capable of performing daily offshore combat tasks."
"Our navy has roughly three plans for the next step. First, continue to strengthen daily basic tactical training and actual combat drills, further improve and improve the tactical level of the Xijiang Navy, so that it can grow into a qualified navy as soon as possible; second, wait for the navy to After the school is completed, all naval officers will enter the school in batches for rotation training, and plans are to hire some personnel with theoretical knowledge and practical experience from the Western Continent to serve as instructors at the naval academy. They can even board ships directly as actual combat instructors, allowing the West Xinjiang Navy to further develop Familiar with the excellent techniques and tactics of the Western Continental Navy, and integrate with the mainland naval powers as soon as possible; thirdly, after the large warships are in place, adapt and become familiar with the combat methods of large warships as quickly as possible, form a powerful ocean-going fleet, and so that it can quickly form combat capabilities."
The ambitious words of the naval commander have already revealed that the Western Xinjiang Navy is not just dominating the offshore waters. Dominating the Southern Ocean will be the mid-term goal, and the long-term plan is to challenge the naval powers in the central and western continents. This makes Wu Feng feel very moved. It is gratifying that only an army that pursues tirelessly and forges ahead can remain invincible in future challenges. The idea of being satisfied with the status quo and settling for a corner will only make the army a target for destruction by the enemy.
"Very good, Cangpu, let's go with your plan. Over at the Naval Academy, on behalf of the navy, you should contact the Department of Civil and Health Affairs of the Government Affairs Bureau. Although the Western Continent Navy has its own merits in warship technology compared to our Eastern Continent, they In terms of flexible tactics and daily training of sailors, I personally think that they have greatly surpassed our Eastern Continent Navy. If we continue to sit back and look at the sky and be arrogant, then we will definitely pay a heavy price in the challenges we may face in the future. , on this point, as commander-in-chief, we must have the foresight and vision from a high position. I will also inform Xiao Tang and He Jing to let them pay attention to this matter. The navy has no second place, and the control of sea power must be based on a strong team Based on the naval fleet, Cangpu, you must firmly understand these five and never relax. Perhaps in the near future, the navy will have to undertake arduous tasks that are unimaginable to you."
There was something in Wu Feng's words that made it difficult for the navy commander to understand its detailed meaning for a while, but he knew that His Highness King Qin's words must have something to say. No matter from any angle, strengthening the construction of all aspects of the fleet is a top priority. Lei Cang The garden is by no means ambiguous. It turns out that Lei Cangpu was still a little disappointed with the navy's lack of a deep enough base network. After all, the ports of Moro and Eastern Samoa are not far from each other, they are in the same sea area, and their positions are parallel. If the navy fleet wants to conduct long-distance actual combat exercises, it cannot find them. A suitable location as an alternate base also makes supplies a problem. But things are different now. Fernie Island and Princesa Island both have excellent harbors for establishing military ports, and Heron Island can become a medium-sized supply base after planning and construction. As soon as these bases are completed, the navy will The active sea area can be expanded several times without worrying about replenishment.
Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan. With the cessation of the fighting in the Far North, the Kaman and Baiin people have gradually begun to fulfill their respective obligations in accordance with the signed treaties, and the transactions in Jiayuguan and Qinghe Prefecture are also proceeding smoothly. , Maili's whereabouts in Fanlin City became a mystery. Neither his body nor among the prisoners was found. He seemed to have suddenly disappeared like air. Although all the prisoners in Maili's personal guard were interrogated, no one could tell clearly where Maili was when the city was broken. Three of his personal guards disappeared with him. The Kaman people have always suspected that Xijiang secretly detained Maili, but Xijiang has a hard time saying that there is no body or person alive. It is really difficult to explain the term "missing" when applied to Maili. Fortunately, this has not affected the cooperation between the two parties in implementing the treaty.
In view of the performance of the Sisluo people in this mediation activity, Xijiang has also begun to implement a quota system for strategic materials imported to the Sisluo Empire. In particular, the review system has been stricter in terms of food, weapons and other important materials. On the one hand, it restricts the Heathrow people from storing supplies, and on the other hand, it also prevents the Heathrow people from selling surplus supplies to the Kaman people. A small number of Kaman and Puer captives were taken to Gued and Lulong for mine development, pending the arrival of Kaman and Puer ransoms. Before the ransom is paid, they will be regarded as full labor and become the main labor force of the mine, while most of the remaining ones will be dispersed and escorted to North Luzon, Burma, and Zhongnan County as the most popular free labor for the new construction, reconstruction and expansion of local roads. labor force. In order to compete for this batch of free labor, the governors of the three regions even had a fierce quarrel in the Government Affairs Office, and Xiao Tang finally made the decision.
Jiayuguan finally returned to the hands of Western Xinjiang. Jin Zecheng temporarily took on the important responsibility of guarding Jiayuguan. The recovery of Yulin and Qinghe also became a matter of course. Zhan Botao's Nanjie Locke Division temporarily took over the defense of Yulin and Qinghe. The third legion reluctantly assumed the responsibility of guarding the gate leading directly to the imperial capital Zhongzhou. However, because these two areas have just entered the administration of Western Xinjiang and have been tortured by Kaman for a long time, they can only be controlled by the military for the time being. Fortunately, the local people are already eager to take over Western Xinjiang, and it seems that Western Xinjiang's power is still extending eastward unknowingly. Although Heishan and Longquan are still controlled by the so-called local autonomous governments, everyone knows that this is just a false pretense. The city guards and key department officials of the two governments are all from other places and are dispatched by the Western Xinjiang Government Affairs Office. However, on the surface, it was recommended by the gentry of the two governments. Even the internal officials of the Xijiang Government Affairs Office thought this kind of trick was too false. Issue orders directly.
The great victory of Western Xinjiang on both the northern and southern fronts once again stimulated the nerves of all parties in the empire. There were people who lamented and admired. In the face of the recovery of Jiayuguan, the defeat and surrender of the Kaman and Hesi Luo people, Jerok's complete victory The restoration of the territory, the further expansion of sea power in the south, and the further expansion of trade routes all made those nobles and merchants who remembered the heyday of the empire seem to see the grand scene of the empire's resurgence, but this scene was no longer controlled by the central government of the empire. Playing the leading role, the protagonist becomes a vassal of the empire, but this does not affect people's high spirits; there are those who are gnashing their teeth, the power of Western Xinjiang is at its peak, half of the ten counties of the empire have fallen into the hands of Li Wufeng, hundreds of thousands of elite army can be called The strongest army in the Eastern Continent, it swept through thousands of armies and overwhelmed everyone. The empire exists in name only, and the centuries-old orthodox rule of the Situ family is crumbling like a candle in the wind, making people sleep uneasy.
More people looked at all this with a mixed mentality of joy and worry. The performance of the Situ family gradually made them lose hope, both from their inner emotions and from the reality of the interest pattern. Generally speaking, they do not want to see the decline of the Tanghe nation, and the rise of a force that represents the Tanghe nation is in line with their wishes. However, the Situ family has occupied the position of artifact for hundreds of years. The long-term psychological stereotype has made many people feel that the Tanghe Empire is the Situ family, and the Situ family is the only representative of the Tanghe Empire. However, this belief It has been gradually weakened by the empire's repeated defeats in foreign wars and the loss of territory in the past ten years.
The strong rise of Li Wufeng, who was born in the aristocracy, made many people seem to see new hope. He expanded territories, conquered barbarians, and opened up trade routes. All of this made the people of the empire who had been suppressed for a long time feel the emergence of new heroes and new idols, and Wu Feng's legendary war career and romantic affairs have become the focus of the young generation. Even the conservative nobles who tried to use their corrupt private life to attack and destroy Wu Feng's reputation had to lament that the idol's charm is endless. , it can even be said that idols have unlimited privileges. A beauty matches a hero. In Li Wufeng, people are not in love with young people, which subverts the old saying that people are not in love with young people in vain. It is regarded as a true portrayal of Li Wufeng's private life, but this seems to have not damaged Li Wufeng's reputation at all, and even further The effect of promotion.
Another great victory in Western Xinjiang was like someone vigorously stirring the long-fermented wine jar. The rich smell gradually began to spread out. Voices questioning the empire and the Situ family also quietly spread throughout the empire, as dynasties changed. The word "change the sky" is also implicitly mentioned by celebrities in the upper class society of the empire from time to time. Like a turning point or watershed, after Western Xinjiang achieved great victory over the Kaman and Puer people, the entire empire entered what later historians called the "post-Situ Lang period", marking the Tanghe Empire's influence on the Eastern Continent. The power was officially transferred from the center of the empire to the hands of Xijiang, and Li Wufeng also replaced anyone in the Situ family in the Tanghe Empire and became the most influential figure in the Tang clan.
